What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Understanding future hydroclimatic variability in arid regions is essential for sustainable development and climate adaptation. This study uses bias-corrected CMIP6 daily climate projections, derived by applying the BCCAQ method to ERA5 reanalysis and surface station data, to investigate the spatiotemporal evolution of key meteorological variables and drought conditions over Xinjiang during 2031-2060 under three SSP scenarios (SSP1-2.6, SSP3-7.0, and SSP5-8.5). Results reveal significant warming trends across all scenarios, with stronger increases under high-emission pathways (up to 0.76°C/10a under SSP585), accompanied by enhanced potential evapotranspiration (PET) and widespread aridification. While precipitation shows an upward trend under SSP370 and SSP585, the warming-induced evaporative demand dominates, particularly in southern Xinjiang and the eastern basins. The SPEI index indicates an intensifying drought risk, with spatial patterns characterized by a "dry south-wet north" gradient and stronger basin aridification relative to mountainous regions. Moreover, this study highlights the physical mechanism linking temperature rise, enhanced PET, and intensified drought, providing robust empirical evidence for regional climate risk assessment and adaptation strategies in Central Asia. Despite methodological advantages, limitations associated with spatial resolution and structural uncertainty of GCMs persist, suggesting the need for integrating regional climate models (RCMs) and extreme event analyses in future research.
